The pattern of the Thanksgiving celebration has never changed through the years. The big family dinner is planned months ahead. On the dinner table, people will find apples, oranges, chestnuts, walnuts and grapes. There will be plum pudding, mince pie, other varieties of food and cranberry juice and squash. The best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and melon pie. They have been the most traditional and favorite food on Thanksgiving Day throughout the years.
Everyone agrees the dinner must be built around roast turkey stuffed with a bread dressing to absorb the tasty juices as it roasts. But as cooking varies with families and with the regions where one lives, it is not easy to get a consensus on the precise kind of stuffing for the royal bird.
Thanksgiving today is, in every sense, a national annual holiday on which Americans of all faiths and backgrounds join in to express their thanks for the year" s bounty and reverently ask for continued blessings.
感恩节是美国国定假日中最地道、最美国式的节日，而且它和早期美国历史最为密切相关 。
1620年，一些朝圣者（或称为清教徒）乘坐"五月花"号船去美国寻求宗教自由 。 他们在海上颠簸折腾了两个月之后，终于在酷寒的十一月里，在现在的马萨诸塞州的普里茅斯登陆 。
在第一个冬天，半数以上的移民都死于饥饿和传染病，活下来的人们在第一个春季开始播种 。 整个夏天他们都热切地盼望着丰收的到来，他们深知自己的生存以及殖民地的存在与否都将取决于即将到来的收成 。 后来，庄稼获得了意外的丰收，所以大家决定要选一个日子来感谢上帝的恩典 。 多年以后，美国总统宣布每年十一月的第四个星期四为感恩节 。 感恩节庆祝活动便定在这一天，直到如今 。
感恩节庆祝模式许多年来从未改变 。 丰盛的家宴早在几个月之前就开始着手准备 。 人们在餐桌上可以吃到苹果、桔子、栗子、胡桃和葡萄，还有葡萄干布丁、碎肉馅饼、各种其它食物以及红莓苔汁和鲜果汁，其中最妙和最吸引人的大菜是烤火鸡和番瓜馅饼，这些菜一直是感恩节中最富于传统意义和最受人喜爱的食品 。
人人都赞成感恩节大餐必需以烤火鸡为主菜 。 火鸡在烘烤时要以面包作填料以吸收从中流出来的美味汁液，但烹饪技艺常因家庭和地区的不同而各异，应用什幺填料也就很难求得一致 。
今天的感恩节是一个不折不扣的国定假日 。 在这一天，具有各种信仰和各种背景的美国人，共同为他们一年来所受到的上苍的恩典表示感谢，虔诚地祈求上帝继续赐福 。
英语感恩演讲稿 篇7 A teacher is like Spring,Who nurtures new green sprouts, Encourages and leads them,Whenever they have doubts.A teacher is like Summer,Whose sunny temperament Makes studying a pleasure, Preventing discontent.
A teacher is like Fall,With methods crisp and clear,Lessons of bright colors And a happy atmosphere.A teacher is like Winter,While it‘s snowing hard outside,Keeping students comfortable,As a warm and helpful guide.
Teacher, you do all these things,With a pleasant attitude;You’re a teacher for all seasons,And you have my gratitude!
英语感恩演讲稿 篇8 Thanksgiving parents, filial piety parents is the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. The ancients cloud: "who play inch grass heart, reported to the three inches across?" Parents give us life, gave us a good living environment...
They disregard the heat in the summer, summer gave us excellent condition, air conditioning, computer, mobile phone... We are watching TV, playing computer, but they in the sun, and hard to feed their families. Back their black, thin, more wrinkles, head of white hair more.
Autumn, collect food, after collect covered in ash, dirty. Rain to take us to learn, even if he had been rain, let's get wet in the rain. Beads of rain drops fall on your hair, drops to the face, in my heart.
